QTR-Quadtone RIP

I had the same probleme that happened with photorag by loading paper
by the autofeed sheet tray. The paper get curved and then at the end
of the prints since it's not holded anymore by the printer, the print
heads hit the corner of the paper. Loading by the manual feed tray is
better since your paper keep flat.
